AI consulting and AI marketing in Toronto and the GTA

Custom Solutions AI is an AI consulting firm and AI marketing agency for small and mid-sized businesses in Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Oakville and across the Greater Toronto Area.

AI consultant or AI marketing agency? You may need both

An AI marketing agency runs campaigns that use AI. An AI consultant changes how the business itself runs: how calls get answered, how leads get followed up, how work moves between people and systems. More enquiries are wasted if nobody answers the phone after five, so we do both, in that order: we fix the foundation, then we turn up the marketing.

AI adoption in Canada, in numbers

19.2%of Canadian businesses used AI to produce goods or deliver services in the year to the second quarter of 2026, up from 12.2% in 2025 and 6.1% in 2024. Two in five (40.0%) still say AI isn’t relevant to them.Source: Statistics Canada, Analysis on AI use by businesses in Canada, Q2 2026 (June 11, 2026)

By industry, 42.3% of information and cultural businesses, 40.4% of finance and insurance businesses and 32.4% of professional, scientific and technical services businesses use AI. The rest of the GTA’s small businesses are where the gap, and the advantage, still is.

Choosing an AI consultant in Toronto

Whoever you hire, ask four things before you sign:

  • What will you audit before you recommend anything?
  • How will results be measured: cost per lead, booked appointments, hours saved?
  • Who owns what you build: the data, the lists, the accounts?
  • Who do we call when something breaks?
